Festival Internacional del Globo

The organiser advertises more than 200 balloons from over 25 countries for León’s gathering. Its first-day programme begins with balloons at 06:30 and continues later with music and a night glow. Check the full daily schedule before choosing an admission session.

The evening programme has its own performers and timing. A night glow lights balloons on the ground and does not mean that passengers will fly after dark. Likewise, an admission ticket should not be read as a booking for a balloon ride.

Use the official visitor guide for transport, permitted items and ticket conditions at Parque Metropolitano. If you want to fly in the region, check the operator, location and date separately from the festival programme. Weather can alter the balloon sessions while other activities continue. Prices and artist listings should be checked against the particular day and ticket being purchased.
